Answered on 27th Dec '24

Several factors, such as infections, irritants, or allergies, can be the causes of vaginal itching. The most common triggers could be yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, or being sensitive to soaps or laundry detergents. To alleviate the discomfort, maintain the cleanliness and dryness of the area, avoid the use of harsh products, and prefer breathable clothes over other kinds. As well, non-prescription antifungal or soothing creams may give relief, too. However, you must visit a gynecologist for a precise diagnosis and individual treatment, particularly if the symptoms continue or become more severe.

Hello mam I'm 18 years old and I had my first sexual Intercourse yesterday with condom protection, and this is before 1 and half week of my period, and during the process there was no ejaculation from him, so are there any chances for me to get pregnant?

Female | 18

Even if you use a condom, there's still a small chance of pregnancy if there was contact between the genitals. But, if the ejaculation was avoided, the chance is very low. So, nothing to worry about if you're late at times in your periods. A physical examination and pregnancy test after a week or so will be useful for a positive result to confirm that you are pregnant or not.

Im facing weak urine stream sometimes i push to urinate? Pain near pevis im 35 days pregnant

Female | 23

Experiencing a weak urine stream, the need to push to urinate, and pelvic pain during pregnancy could have various causes.. Hormonal changes and pregnancy can also affect the urinary system, but these symptoms might also indicate other issues. Get medical attention to ensure your well being and address any concerns during pregnancy.

Good day, i need to check regarding my wife HCG test, it's showing quantity 2622.43 mlU/ml, it's means positive.

Female | 25

An HCG level of 2622.43 mlU/ml indicates a positive pregnancy test. HCG is a hormone produced during pregnancy, and its presence in a woman's blood or urine is a strong indicator of pregnancy. However, the HCG levels can vary widely between individuals.

I am 17 years old and am scared I might be pregnant. I used protection and checked for holes but I’m still concerned because I’m not on birth control and I took a pregnancy test 7 days after I had sex and it came back negative do you think there is a chance I could be pregnant

Female | 17

When a woman is pregnant, she might experience missed periods, nausea, and being constantly tired. However, stress can also bring these signs. Sometimes getting tested one week after intercourse may not give accurate results. If you want to be more certain, wait longer and do another test.

Can I take painkillers (like ibuprofen or acetaminophen?) for period cramps, if I'm on fluoxetine?

Female | 15

Generally ibuprofen and acetaminophen can be used for period cramps. However, if you're taking fluoxetine, an antidepressant, it's important to consult your doctor or pharmacist before using pain relievers to ensure there are no potential interactions or risks. They can provide personalized guidance based on your situation.

Hi. I had 8 months back resulted in ectopic pregnancy. My periods was normal after that. However, since January my cycle is not right. I usually had 28-30 days of cycle. In January I got periods on 35th day. Feb was 30th day and now I am due on 5th March. Didn't got my period yet. One strange thing is also happening that when I wipe after poop I see a lil blood spot. This only happens around my period since 2-3 times. Currently I am having leg pain since 5 days. Feeling nauseous also. The reason for ivf was low amh. Got only 4 eggs in ivf process. Please help what should I do next

Female | 29

Your gynecologist should be consulted on this, as you experience irregularities in your menstrual cycles after ectopic pregnancy. It might be post-wiping blood because of hormonal changes or as a result of infection. Leg pain and nausea could be caused by almost anything, therefore a thorough investigation must be done. It is vital for you to not neglect seeing your doctor without delay.
